Josh Evans on DevOps at Netflix


Listen Later

In this podcast Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Josh Evans, former engineering manager at Netflix on how Netflix does DevOps and the freedom and responsibility culture that undermines their way of working.
Why listen to this podcast:
• There are many interpretations of the term DevOps, it is a useful shorthand for a wide variety of technologies and approaches
• “You build it, you run it” is the concrete application of the freedom and responsibility culture
• When building a platform tool make it so easy to use that the product teams are not tempted to try and build something for themselves
• Product teams are free to experiment and learn, which can feel chaotic and is a valuable part of the freedom and responsibility culture
• The value of blameless and safe incident reviews – the goal is to learn and find patterns and use that information to present whole classes of failure from happening in the future
• Don’t view the value stream in a fragmented way – see the whole end to end system with all its interactions and dependencies and optimize the system as a cohesive whole rather than different tools and domains
